Let's talk more about this bro. If not, I'm going to bed.

I'd like an update biased Vancouverite opinion on the matter.

No veterans on defense

They looked awesome against the Sharks the other night, San Jose had difficulty keeping up with them, Bolts are a really quick team!

They're missing their number one center, he was leading them in points when he got hurt. Where would've the Canucks been without Henrik when he was in his prime.

Polak and Hunwick.

Sabres getting healthy, they looked good against the Canadiens tonight.

Sounds like a lawyer firm not D lol

I wouldn't want anyone learning from those 2.

They have enough picks and prospects, time to use them on something.

This years draft class for D is trash as well so nothing there. and Toronto isn't getting liljegrin.

Add some vetsran D & get better results in goal & not looking shabby.

Don't draft D?Since Shanahan started:

Dermott
Nielsen
Lindgren
Desrocher
Greenway
Middleton
Mattinen

I mean I'm all for criticism, but (frank) me, 7 D drafted in two years?. It was loon a tad mental drafting more

Ahh so when you said veterans, you didn't mean veterans, you meant good older players?

Rielly is such a stud back there for them though, too bad he plays for them.

Two months ago.
- LeftCoaster

he wasnt back long then it seems. Big loss to the team for sure

still its been said many times that cooper doesnt have the players playing for him, that they are tired of listening to his rants. Unknown validity but that certainly would disrupt an entire team like that

Come now.

Rielly is a bust. He was drafted by the Laffs.

I never know which one of you I'm reading. The nice Leafs blog LeftCoaster or the West Coaster LeftCoaster.

None of those guys are blue chip

top 15 defensive prospects in the league and none of those guys would make the cut.

Who do you consider blue chip? Seriously? Have a gander at Nielsen. 1st year out of junior. 2nd in AHL scoring.

Other than that (and possibly Dermott), I agree, not blue chippers on D. But this is the first year they've been on the upswing. I wonder if JVR could get them a decent dman (maybe from Anaheim) after the expansion draft?

You don't have to like them, but don't be so bloody nauseating in the Laffs blog. Just say, "look I hate the Laffs, but lets chat", kinda thang.

It's just seeing you in here, and then in there, it's like some weird role play.

I'd imagine a JVR for Fowler deal is high on the agenda for both organization's during the off season

Looks at Sanheim and Myers. Then look at Nielsen. Honestly, look up all the stats
